Introduction
Introduction Saf ety
in
structions relating to the In-
fotainment system Travelling on today's roads requires the driv-
er's f
u
ll attention at all times.
Only operate the radio and its various func-
tions when the traffic situation really permits
this. WARNING
● Bef or
e starting the trip, you should famili-
arise yourself with the different radio func-
tions.
● High audio volume may represent a danger
to y
ou and to others.
● Adjust the volume in a way that you can
distin
guish surrounding noise, for example,
horns and sirens, etc.
● Changes to the Infotainment system set-
tings
should be made when the car is stop-
ped, or by a passenger. WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an acc ident
and cause injuries. Operating the
Infotainment system can distract your atten-
tion from the traffic.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly. ●
Select
volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency services sirens
and horns).
● Hearing may be impaired if using too high a
volume settin
g, even if only for short periods
of time. WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when
y ou sw it
ch audio source or connect a new au-
dio source.
● Lower the base volume before connecting
or switc
hing audio sources. WARNING
The driving recommendations and traffic indi-
cation s
shown on the navigation system may
differ from the current traffic situation.
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations have
priority ov
er the recommendations and dis-
plays provided by the navigation system.
● Adjust your vehicle speed and driving style
to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions. WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data me-
dium whil e driv
ing can distract your attention
from the traffic and cause an accident. WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may
ob s
truct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they
do not ob
struct the driver. WARNING
External devices that are loose or not proper-
ly sec ur
ed could move around the passenger
compartment during a sudden driving or
braking manoeuvre or an accident and cause
damage or injury.
● Never place or fit external devices to the
doors, wind
screen, steering wheel, dash pan-
el, the backs of the seats, on top of or near
the area marked “AIRBAG” or between these
areas and the occupants. External devices
can cause serious injury in an accident, espe-
cially when the airbags inflate. WARNING
The armrest may obstruct the driver's arm
mov ement
s, which could cause an accident
and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the
vehicl
e is in motion. WARNING
Opening a CD player's housing can lead to in-
juries fr
om invisible laser radiation.
● Have CD players repaired only by a quali-
fied workshop

Note
● The avai l
ability of AM and DAB bands de-
pends on the country and/or equipment. In
the event that the AM and DAB bands are not
available, the BAND function button text will
not be shown.
● Bear in mind that being underground, in
tunnel
s, in areas with tall buildings or moun-
tains can interfere with radio signals.
● Foil or metal-coated stickers attached to
the window
s may affect reception on vehicles
with a window aerial. RDS radio data services (FM band)
Fig. 13
Standard representation: FM station
li s
t
menu The RDS (Radio Data System) offers addition-
al
inf
orm
ation in FM such as the visualisation
of the station name, automatic station track- ing (AF), text emitted by radio (Radio Text),
traffic r
eports (TP) and station types (PTY).
Depending on the country and the unit in
question, the RDS can be deactivated in the FM setup menu ››› page 23.
Without RDS it is not possible to use radio
data services.
Name of the station and automatic station
tracking
If equipped with the RDS function, the names
of the stations can be displayed in the main
RADIO menu and in the FM station list .
FM radio stations may occasionally or contin-
uously broadcast different content on differ-
ent regional frequencies under the same sta-
tion name (e.g. Station 3).
By default, automatic station tracking always
switches to the currently selected station's
frequency that offers the best reception, as
the vehicle travels from one area to the next.
As a result, this may cause the regional sig-
nal to be lost.
Automatic frequency changing and automatic
station tracking can be deactivated in FM setup ››› page 23.
Setting a station name
In some cases the name of the station is too
long. This text may be blocked/unblocked by
pressing on the station name for 3 seconds until hearing an audible signal (a dot will ap-
pear/dis
appear on the left and right of the
station name).
Radio text
Some RDS-enabled stations also broadcast
additional text information known as radio
text.
Radio Text is displayed in the upper half of
the screen above the memory buttons
››› Fig. 11 A .
The R a
dio
Text display can be deactivated in
FM setup ››› page 23.
Station list order
Stations that are available at a certain time
are displayed on the station list screen ( STA-
TION LIST function button). This list may
be ordered by station group, by genre or al-
phabetically ››› Fig. 13. Note
● Ra dio s
tations are responsible for the con-
tent of the information they transmit.
● Due to matters of infrastructure, RDS func-
tions m
ay be limited in certain countries, and
you may not be able to receive traffic an-
nouncements, automatic station tracking (AF)
or programme types (PTY). 18
Audio and Media Mode
DAB signal indicates the corresponding other
D AB s
t
ation.
● Automatic DAB - FM switching: The radio
att
empts to tune into the same station on the
FM frequency band. Automatic station track-
ing only works if the DAB station and the FM
station transmit the same station identifier or
the DAB signal indicates the corresponding
FM station. Once the corresponding FM sta-
tion has been found, “FM” is displayed after
the station name. When reception for the cor-
responding DAB station returns, after a short
time the unit will switch back to DAB mode
and “FM” will no longer be displayed.
● Switch to a similar station: This al
lows
service providers to indicate alternative sta-
tions with similar content. This way, if the ra-
dio loses reception of a DAB station and can-
not find an alternative frequency for it on FM
or DAB, there is a possibility of tuning in to a
station with similar content.
Radio text
Some stations also broadcast additional text
information known as radio text.
Radio text is displayed in the upper half of
the screen above the memory buttons
››› Fig. 14 or on the Station information or Ra-
dio text screens of the Screen view menu
››› page 20.
The radio text display can be deactivated in
DAB settings ››› page 24. Slideshow

s broadcast images for addi-
tional visual information.
